Lenora thanks for the tips but what happened last night is I was really sleepy and I hit the wrong button. Becca I had to laugh at the blow dryer tip for itching as I could just picture your DH sucking on the blow dryer trying to get relief! I sincerely hope they pin down the problem tonight. (((((Hugs))))) They moved my…

Requesting prayers for my mom - Laura - she is in hospital and not doing well, cannot walk or care for herself. Received a text from one of my sister's saying that they thought she'd had a stroke but all tests have come back normal. I don't know how I will cope with her passing when the time comes.. It was hard with my…

The negative calories theory is an old one where it was stated that you burn more calories chewing celery than the number of calories in the celery - hence negative calories.

Janetr - I've been where you are and know how difficult it is to feel positive when they go in and out of rehab only to go back to drugs once again. . My son started smoking pot when he was 12 after our next door neighbor molested him and later got hooked on meth. He was 33, had lost his wife and girls and later his boys…

Michelle I've come to the conclusion that you bake and give all the goodies away so you alone will have the best body in town . . .sneaky! Lol

Ok so I just noticed the spell check changed Katla to Karla and poem to home. I'm using my Kindle instead of My laptop and it seems to have a mind of his own :#

I can't remember who asked if I have internet at ho me now but the answer is no. Just on more often this week as I am at friends or relatives with internet. So much going on with everyone but am only sending a shout out to Karla for that awesome home. Couldn't you see Carole Burnett doing that as a skit?! Yesterday I had…

Barbiecat - so sad to hear of Jake's loss. Hugs to both of you. Too many lost to this terrible disease. I fervently hope that there will be a cure someday. Joyce - thinking of you and sending up a prayer that all goes well with Charlie's surgery and recovery. (((Hugs))) Today I am grateful for the internet. Without it we…

Thanks to those who commented on my new/old photo. For some odd reason when I signed in yesterday MFP used this 6 yr old photo rather than the one that was posted before. Also most of My Meals that I had saved are missing.Obviously the MFP cyber ghost is lurking again! :(

BECCA - what hospital are you going to in Portland? I am so sorry to hear about DHs New liver problems. Don't worry about any of us - please just focus on keeping yourself strong so you can deal with whatever comes of this setback. Love to you and DH. Gloria in sunny with clouds WA

I have been very melancholy lately and missing all of my female friends. It's difficult for me to get to the library all the time due to the early closing time. Anyway here I am and have been reading first page of May posts. Still don't have internet but things are looking up and maybe next month I'll be back online.…

Haven't been reading, haven't been posting, haven't been exercising, have been eating cookies! Need some motivation - not going back to 350 ever!!! I know I can get through this - I've been here before - seems like whenever I get under 270 I start screwing up. It's almost like the prisoner who has one week left on his…

My daughter use to go to tanning salons because she is also very pale - she ended up with Melanoma which scared the c**p out of her entire family as her grandmother died from Melanoma. I say NAY - it's not worth the risk particularly since you had severe sunburns as a child. Yes a tan makes you look healthier but looking…

"I've said this before, and I'll say it again: I was a beautiful, smart woman then too, with accomplishments and talents. I'm not defined by my body, and I was in no way less deserving or less wonderful than I am now. And you readers out there feeling like you're worthless because of your weight? Stop, right now. Wanting…

Wow it takes a loooong time to read all the posts but I love doing it! Really tired tonight as I helped in the 2 & 3yr old classroom tonight at the church. What was I thinking? I'll try to be more supportive tomorrow - but know I'm thinking good things for all of you! Saturday Success - have shaved a few minutes off of my…

@sweetalker - I don't focus on the large number I have to lose as it would depress me as well - but small chunks of the large number are doable and gives me an opportunity to celebrate victories along the way. Maybe a small thing like changing your ticker to reflect pounds lost would help rather than looking at how much…

@moonwalkingquee _ congrats on the new house! Are you going to paint every room a different color just because you can?:drinker: @MyMowMow - I think you are doing a good job planning ahead. People who have never had a weight problem would not understand our need to plan in advance to stay on track. You have done a great…
